While the number of extant letters written by him on other that Mint business is relatively small, the majority of them are devoted to his controversy with Leibniz - Newton's dominant interest during this period. The correspondence of Newton shades gradually into the correspondence of the Newtonians. Thus notably Keill, De Moivre, Chamberlayne, Brook Taylor, the Abbe Conti and Des Maizeaux interested themselves in the calculus dispute, all of them (except the first) having frequent opportunities for personal conversation with Newton.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 279mmItem Length: 28mmItem Width: 210mmItem Weight: 1230gAuthor: Isaac NewtonContributor: A.
